Speaking in the House of Lords on 18 June 2026

Debate

Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]

Contribution

The Government’s approach is to decarbonise aviation as a whole, through measures such as sustainable aviation fuel, airspace modernisation and more efficient aircraft. Private aviation is not outside that framework. Domestic aviation emissions are already captured within the carbon budgets under the Climate Change Act 2008 and, as I said, international aviation emissions are being brought fully into scope from the sixth carbon budget onwards.
